It depends. I make a much easier Pesach now…my kids aren’t anywhere near us, they are not coming for Pesach, so my husband & I do all the cleaning. Spring cleaning is not necessary. Dust is unpleasant but it isn’t chometz. If I find a bread roll in my sweater drawer, then I have a problem. I think it is much harder for mothers of young children to keep a more chometz-free environment.
That said, I make EVERYTHING from scratch – even a basic tomato sauce that I can use with fish , meat or chicken; mayonnaise; ice cream etc. But we do not use anything processed except kosher salt, potato starch, cocoa & oil. No milchigs. Only peeled fruits and vegetables. No spices. So for me, it is still hard work.
Wishing everyone a wonderful Yom Tov, chag kosher v’sameach & ladies… don’t stress & work yourselves so hard you can’t enjoy the seder/sedarim.
